Reminding me

...of the weekend in Budapest. :-D

Åhus

Or, to make this readable in English, Aahus.
It's a small town in the northeast part of Skåne (Skeone in English). We spent two nights there with two friends and their daughter, and had a really good time, even though the weather wasn't as good as one would have hoped for. Our bed and breakfast situated very close to the harbour was good, the owner is a great guy, so this place I can recommend.


However, there are other places that are not very great. Two places that could be avoided, if you think good service is important, are Pråmen and Handelsbaren. Could be, that they have been working there seven days a week since June, but still... At least the food was really good at Handelsbaren, after I sent it back once for almost being cold.



A simple pizzaplace, Robins, was a real pleasant surprise. They were very serviceminded and delivered with a genuene smile. Also, one does save a lot of money by eating here instead of down by the harbour.
Other stuff to do is to get a couple of beers and walk around town, and the ice cream boats are also popular, but spending more than a couple of days require warmer and better weather I think.

Spiderman 4

The rumour is true, they are shooting the new Spiderman movie right here in Lund. Most probably because the local actors are cheaper to hire.
Below is a photo from an action scene at the local bath.


And if you wonder why I am so tired some days, the explanation is right here. I have only 50cm width to sleep on.

Finally

Two days ago she started on her own...

This is stupid

You go almost 10km by car to a small candy shop go the middle of nowhere, and everything is as expensive or costs more than in any damn store next to where you live. Oh, but it's fresh candy... So, if they make it here, it should be cheaper! Gay. :(

Time to catch a flight

Not the usual time to stop partying, still I'm leaving a bit early to catch some breakfast. A shame that I'm the last man standing by far, the boys are getting too old. :)

Coronita

This place is even better than before... No, the timestamp isn't lying, it's not time to go to the airport yet.
Miss Siva is really kickin' ass right now.

Bed beach

I just can't get it... Don't mind the picture, I'm talking about the feeling you get here. It's insane. I'm having a rush I hope I'll remember for a year.

It's out of this world

I have been here before.

I have had very good times here before.

In my opinion, Budapest is a real party place. But OMG... This turn is more fun we have ever had with the guys. There's no blog big enough to fit it all in.

Oh and there's one more night to go...

A nice night ahead

Today was the least sunny day, mostly rain so far, but now it's improving. Think Rio or Bed Beach will be a good choice. I just don't understand when we will rest some. :)
Morrisons 2 has not disappointed us the previous two nights, but I feel that I'm not even close to being in the same shape as 10-15 years ago. :-D Must be the water at Gellert...

One thing I wonder

Where are the guys?! :-D I'm lost... again.

Wednesday

No, really, it's Wednesday! So freakin' good! Nightlife is better here...

Arrived in Bp

At B-plan, a place that has lost lot of it's quality, but still it's ok.
Anyway, great to be here with the guys!

Midsummer evening in Sweden

Welcome to midsummer in Sweden. We had crazy showers and winds, it even hailed, but sunshine was also on the menu. Look carefully at the picture above, and you'll see the flags in the upper right corner, and the rain making stripes in the picture.


There were seven of us celebrating this event, and of course the amount of food we prepared resulted in lots of leftovers. We didn't even run out of alcohol, seems like we're getting to old for this. :P



Klara's godparents slept here, and then today I made pancakes for breakfast, and actually I didn't manage to eat anything else until later this evening.
Before they left, Magnus played with Klara, but really in an active way, she sat there and talked to him, while he was trying to read from a Hungarian book. It molt my heart seeing him play with Klara.

Nice day

Two "fun" things happened today...

First, I left my pillow outside the whole morning to freshen a bit, of course without the pillowcase, and to great joy, a bird took a shit on it. I mean, what are the odds? Have never happened before, oh but now...

Then, as I was putting the tennis balls into the machine dryer to tumble my now clean pillow, I knocked over the liquid detergent, so I had to wet mop a zillion times to get rid of it.

On the other hand, today was a good day in the sense that Klara behaved lovely the whole day, not whining as much as she normally does these days.
And then, my wife got some really great news tonight, but I can't share that with the public just yet.

Edit, June 17th: She got the new job she wanted, and today she quit her old job! :)

Full speed

Up on the hill at mom and dads place, my old house in the background.

Just one problem

...that I can think of. Who's going to push the cart?

Speed limits

The other day, on my way home from the gymn, I tried something completely new. I drove very economically and kept to the speed limits. I didn't break any of them, except not slowing down completely to 50 from 70 when exiting a road work area.
Now, this was around 19:30, still there were quite a few cars on the highway. I noticed a few things driving this way:
It was boring, though survivable as it's only 15km to drive.
I was able to go in a convoy of other cars at that speed, not having to take over many.
An old man behind me for over 5km had a cow about 50m from a chicane, tried a crazy, rabid overtake, me slowing down to 50, but he didn't make it. It was kind of amusing though, because afterward, he only went 10km/h above the limit, barely overtaking me.

So what did I learn in this experiment?
I'd rather take the bus. If everyone drove like this, people dead in traffic accidents wouldn't be zero, because they'd die from boredom.

Another perfect summer day

Third day in a row, sunny, 25C in the shade and a slight, warm breeze. Doesn't get any better than this here in Sweden.
Tomorrow it's back to sub 20C and probably rain, but until then we'll try to hang in there. :)

In the park

All the neighbours are in the park, a great day for all of us. :)
Klara is trying hard to show her new skills.
